It sound like this is meant to be a no-op clean-up; let's see.

OK, xdl_do_diff() calls xdl_free_env(xe) before an error return (I
didn't check if patience and histogram also do so correctly), so the
original was not leaking xe1 or xe2.

And this does not change that.

Here, as xdl_build_script() does free the script it failed to build,
but not the xe it was given, the original is correct to free xe1.

We jump from here to leave the freeing of xe1 to the clean-up part.

Ditto for xe2 here.

And after the post-context of this hunk, we do free_env() both xe1
and xe2, so we should be doing the same thing as before.

Looking good.
